WWE Royal Rumble 2020: Rating Each Entrant's Chances Of Winning

5. Kevin Owens

Roman Reigns Otis

Think about how hot Kevin Owens could be right now had the Shane McMahon feud ended at SummerSlam 2019. With KO soaring, that was the right spot to finally put a nail in Shane's coffin, and choosing to stretch it out by a couple more months was a needless derailment of a character closing in on the form of his life.

It's fortunate, then, that KO's ongoing programme with Seth Rollins' crew has restored much of his momentum. He's in a great place heading into the Rumble and Raw's top champion is a heel, soooo...

Chances: Good.
